Percy's ears are funny when he's sleeping - one is upright and the other is flopped over. Percy's sleeping is like a slob fallen asleep in his armchair.

On a different note, 'nappy' is an old (UK) English word for what you 'merkins call 'diapers', so when he says 'nappy time', it has rather strange connotations until you work it out. At first I thought Percy was going to be wearing a diaper, and then I got images of him being wrapped in swaddling. Does anyone actually say things like 'nappy time' for 'nap time'?

I'm familiar with both usages and didn't have any problem discerning meaning. "Nappy" in this case is just a diminutive form of "nap," which is perfectly doable. I'm sure I've done it before. Actually it doesn't seem unlikely that this is where the term as it refers to a diaper originated from.

PS last panel, avatar, do it now, I would but I already have the best freaking avatar on God's green Earth TYVM IYDM.
